I put Slayer because practically every fast metal band out there I have seen them state the Slayer has influenced them. Green Day has influnced basically every pop rock/punk band of today though whether that is good or not, I am not sure and I dont think that needs to be debated in this thread.

Stevie Ray Vaughan had a huge impact on blues. He brought it closer to popular music and still kept it real.

I say it's a tie between The Beatles and Led Zepplin. Both have influenced the music market, and both are still finding new fans today...

Slint and Neurosis had a big impact on the music i like.. most wouldnt exist if it wasnt for them, pioneering post-rock and atmospheric metal respectively.

obviously there were bigger influences further back but i dont know them.

I'd say Black Sabbath, this is probably the top influence in metal.

I'd say a toss up between Sabbath and Zeppelin. Pantera are in there too for keeping metal alive and popular in a time when it might have died out.
