Drained the block and radiator while still hot, could I have done any damage 200 1987

Like a dumbass, I drained the block and radiator after just shutting off the engine, not realizing that it might not be a good idea (duh) with everything being so hot. Could I have done any damage to the engine? Is this as bad as running it with no coolant? The temp gauge never got into the danger zone.
