Says the wobble could be the result of the bearing(best case scenario), or it's due to a bent wheel, axle shaft or wheel. Won't know until he does a complete tear down during the bearing replacement.

Just an FYI, on the rear there's no way a bad wheel bearing will cause the wheel to have a "wobble", the wheel can move up and down due to the bad bearing, or the entire wheel can move in and out for the same reason.
For a rear wheel to have a wobble it would have to be from a bent axle/axle flange or a bent wheel/rim.
