Of course there was the respect. Crover was (still is?) good mates with Grohl, Crover is how Grohl came to be a part of Nirvana, and Crover also played in a band with Kurt prior to both the formation of the Melvins and Nirvana. The two bands definitely had quite strong ties.

But I'd have to argue that the Melvins were proportionately more influential upon Nirvana than Nirvana was the Melvins.
