It slightly drys the outside, which makes a great crust. The drier outside also seems to seal in the juices in the middle.

Admittedly, I do this mostly for pan frying since I don't grill steaks that often. Drying/aging the steaks saves you from trying to fry a steak in a puddle of water.
I can cook a steak in an iron skillet better than most people can cook on a grill anyway
