Normally I'd say try deleting history on the object, or to try freezing/resetting the transforms. But if it is occurring to a new poly grid in the scene with your FBX import it would seem there is something else much more complex going on.

Okay I re did it again on a new blank scene. New polygon plane, then I translated half of the points in the Y axis again like last time. The smooth was working well, the wavy shape was very nice and CTRL+Z gave me back the geo I had before the smooth. So I must partly apologize to Mr Maya! On the other scene I had a FBX import that perhaps change the properties of the whole scene? Anyway I believe what I'm trying to do should work also on a scene with an FBX import.
