Motley Crue were done because they fired Vince Neil and the album they did with his replacement flopped, nothing to do with 'alternative rock'.
Warrent's 3rd album released in 1993 (Well into the Grunge era) went gold so plenty of people were still buying their records, Not bad for a band with only one song people remember. Then after that they broke up. Again nothing to do with 'alternative rock'.
WASP split up in 1990 so Blackie Lawless could record a solo album, again nothing to do with 'alternative rock'
People shouldn't make sweeping generalisations.
