Clarification on the reward for winning the G1

I've only been watching New Japan since G1 29. I've been resubscribing to New Japan World for the two months the G1 runs every year since then, but outside of that I don't follow New Japan super closely. I was under the impression that winning the G1 granted a World title shot at the following Wrestle Kingdom (pretty much exactly like a Royal Rumble win), but I've been reading that in 2012, Okada turned the reward into a Money in the Bank style "cash-in-able" prize, complete with briefcase. So is that how Zack Sabre Jr. is able to "call his shot" for KOPW?
