I was riding from Toronto Canada to Barrie Canada one time a long time ago. I moved onto the unpaved shoulder to let a bunch of semis go by. I had a wire similar to yours go right through my rear wheel from the left side to the right side. The wire then struck the seatstays but didn't bend. It tore holes about 4 inches long in either side of the tire and tube. Fortunately it wasn't too far a walk to a Canadian Tire store where I was able to buy a new tube and rear tire.
Cheers
