Default Hitch mount bike rack bent

Not really a Jeep topic but it’s on my Cherokee xj so I figured I might as well give it a shot.
long story short, I ****ed up in thinking a bush would not be solid, but this particular bush contained a telephone pole and while backing up I smacked my swing out bike rack, bending it towards my bumper. It functions just fine, and I am aware that bending it back would weaken the metal, but I cannot stand looking at this cattywampus rack. Any bright ideas for bending it back? Tree and recovery strap? 2x4 for leverage?
