Grunge might be a long way from Prog but songs like "21st Century Schizoid Man" and Some King Crimson material would have definately been a huge influence on Prog.

Even grungy sounding groups like The Smashing Pumpkins were probably closer to Prog than grunge in spirit at least, given the complex arrangements and mellotron stylings in their music.
