Was sued, Plainitff did not show, and I won countercliam by default and received a judgment against the Plaintiff/Counter Defendant.

Plaintiff/Counter defedant filed for a "motion to set aside judgment", based on a questionable excuse for not appearing and the court denied their request to set aside the judgment because they "did not allege a meritorious defense."

Can they file any further motions, or can I now proceed with recording lien and going through collections process?

You could have done so as soon as you won the default judgment. While I suppose they can file yet another motion to attempt to vacate the default, or even appeal the first denial, (unlikely they would be successful), nothing would preclude you from getting your lien and trying to collect.
