Default removing the auto tranny

so today i was removing the automatic transmission on my car, got to the point where it's off, but hanging half way and just won't come off. i looked around and found a cable going into the tranny and that's what's keeping it on. what is this cable? i think it has something to do with the throttle cuz i wasnt able to press the gas pedal when the cable was in tension. and how do i remove it? thanks

its a 1jz auto tranny if it matters.

probably the kickdown cable from the throttle. release the cable from the throttle body.
