You got to add a layer of abstraction and think of the infinite tablecloth not as a flat plane but as the surface of a shape. For the simpler one, let's say a sphere, where energy deforms toward the center of the sphere (the big bang, where all the energy is concentrated) because deeper = more energy. Ripping a hole in it, means making the shape look like an apple, and opening a wormhole to the antipodes of the universe. Then it just becomes a topology nightmare.
That's what people mean when they speak of the wacky headlines "science men believe universe could actually be a donut".
And before anyone makes the jump to it, not not every black hole is a wormhole, you can bend geodesics to create event horizons without punching a hole.
