They weren't.
But gravitational waves are a specific prediction of general relativity, 
and so far it's the ONLY theory of gravity that predicts them. And so 
their recent discovery observationally lends credence to general 
relativity. Thus, indirectly, one has greater confidence that the OTHER 
predictions of general relativity are correct, including that the speed 
of gravitational waves is c.

This is similar to a theory of dinosaurs that says that certain genuses 
(like Tyrannosaurus) were warm-blooded and had feathers. There is now 
observational evidence of the feathers. This gives credence to the 
theory and therefore gives additional support that they were also 
warm-blooded, even though the evidence of feathers is not the same as 
evidence of being warm-blooded.
