Why is there a vertical purple line in the middle of the screen

Tv worked fine until I put it screen down on bed to attach wall mounting device for wall mount, once I put it on the wall mount and powered it up this purple vertical line appeared in middle of the screen.

Same exact scenario except for mine is the Sony Bravia XBR-65X850F. It happened when I was mounting the tv and holding it by the bottom when the flimsy bottomade a crack noise. So lame... I'm considering taking it apart to see if unplugging and replugging the cables helps, but I'm guessing not ☹️

@riddlen "flimsy bottomade a crack noise." with a subsequent line sure sounds like a broken LCD. We'd have to see this to verify it.
