If it wasn't for the Sex Pistols punk would have died cause nobody cared about CBGB's. It was a tiny scene with no real circuit of clubs that would have them and therefore no way to get any exposure until punk and new wave hit in Britain.
And Malcolm McLaren only imported the clothes. Both scenes were pretty much ignorant of how the other sounded when they were first developing.
